Your solution – Koresin®
The tackifier for high quality applications
Koresin is successfully applied in the manufacturing of
■ quality and premium tires of all kind
■ for cars, trucks and special vehicles
■ for OEM, replacement and re-treading
■ in light, medium, heavy and speed use operations
■ in earth and air transport rubber compounds
■ other industrial and technical rubber goods, such as
■ conveyor belts
■ power transmission belts
■ hoses
■ cable / roll coverings
■ lining materials

Your solution – Koresin®
When overall performance is key
Outstanding advantages
■ High initial and long-term tackiness of rubber compounds
■ Compatible with all current rubber formulations
■ Processing flexibility
■ degree of tackiness can be adjusted
■ tackiness can be maintained for up to several weeks when needed
■ Koresin has no negative influence on the
■ vulcanization kinetics
■ properties of the vulcanized rubber
■ Proven effectiveness also in formulations with high loading of silica filler

Koresin 0 / 2 / 4
■ A low loading of Koresin increased tack by 300%
■ Higher loadings offer further significant improvement
■ Tack is maintained over extended time periods
Your solution – Koresin®
Tack stability provides safer processing
Koresin has excellent efficiency together with long-term performance compared to standard phenol-formaldehyde based tackifiers (PF resins)
